DIY Christmas Gift Ideas - step 1. Prepare a themed container. In this example, it is a winter boot container. Insert a piece of floral foam or Styrofoam into the container so it fits firmly into it.

Using a little bit of hot glue (a low-temperature glue gun), secure a bamboo skewer to the back of each candy bar. Instead of glue, you can use a clear packing tape to attach a bamboo skewer to the candy bar.

Homemade Christmas Gifts - step 3. In addition to candy bars, you can use other candy pieces.

Unusual Christmas Gifts - step 4. Take Christmas garland in blue, silver, and/or white color. Wrap garland pieces around bamboo skewers, securing them to skewers with a dab of hot glue in two places: right beneath the candy piece and at the bottom.

Candy Bar Bouquet - step 5. Arrange candy flowers in the container the way you desire. Dont forget to put some candy flowers in the back of the centerpiece facing outward from the back of the bouquet so your Christmas gift looks good from all sides.

Christmas DIY Gifts - step 6. You can add some additional decorative elements, such as pieces of curling ribbon, a bow, a balloon, etc.
